established a deadline date of April 4, 2022, for the transmittal of 
applications. This notice extends the deadline date for transmittal of

    On April 4, 2022, the Department is transitioning from use of the 
Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) to the Unique Entity Identifier 
(UEI). To avoid any conflicts with submitting applications during the 
transition period, and to allow applicants more time to prepare and 
submit their applications, we are extending the deadline date for 
transmittal of applications. Applicants that submit applications on or 
before the original deadline date of April 4, 2022, may resubmit their 
applications on or before the new application deadline date of April 8, 
2022, but are not required to do so. If a new application is not 
submitted, the Department will use the application that was submitted 
before the original application deadline. If a new application is 
submitted, the Department will consider the last application 
successfully submitted and received by 11:59:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on 
April 8, 2022.
    Note: All information in the NIA for this competition remains the 
same, except for the deadline for the transmittal of applications.
